Fashion Exhibit: Dress code

For this weeks blog I am writing about the new exhibit that just opened up at the Israel Museum on March 11, 2014. The exhibit is called Dress Codes. The article talks about the Jewish Wardrobe and it’s origins, from all around the world.  The article mostly covers the things that you will see in the museum such as woman’s clothing from central Asia, and how the influence of western culture influenced fashion. Today I had the opportunity to go to the Israel Museum and see the exhibit first hand. I was amazed how beautiful and well treated the clothes were after so many years. I was in aw of the amazing colours that were used in each piece.  I thought the most interesting fact I learned today was about the Little woman and little man clothing, the clothing that the children worn were miniature versions of what the adults wore because children in traditional society’s were considered adults in the making from an early age. I personally love fashion and always find it so interesting to see how fashion changes over generation.
